Chuck E. Cheese will keep its animatronic bands at all its locations in our area, the company confirmed to 40/29 Wednesday.

"The animatronics are staying put in your market," a spokesperson for CEC Entertainment told 40/29, when asked about the locations in Fayetteville, Fort Smith and Rogers. "We only removed the animatronics from our remodeled locations in San Antonio and Kansas City."

Media outlets had reported on those renovations at the locations in San Antonio and Kansas City, causing some on social media to believe the band would disappear from Chuck E. Cheese locations in Arkansas as well.
